Re: Donanemab and Lecanemab

The Alzheimer International Society webinar was really informative, thanks. I thought the section where they talk about how PET amyloid results showing amyloid removal could be due to less tracer penetration because of ARIA/damage, rather than removal of amyloid, was very surprising. From what I ha...

Re: Gauging Interest in a Trial with Valter Longo, PhD

[ So does this mean to increase the animal protein (or keep that to a minimum, as Bredesen's protocol suggests) or up the vegetable protein? Saw this article today and thought of you: Cutting Back on One Amino Acid Increases Lifespan of Middle-Aged Mice Up to 33% A new study in mice found limited in...

Re: Announcing a Personalized Precision Medicine Clinical Trial to Reverse Dementia

Where can I find more info about recode and who can provide that program and if it’s worth it as it seems very expensive. As well as what is best to eat and supplements to take. One of the wiki articles here on the ApoE4.info website addresses Dr Bredesen's protocol: Bredesen Protocol FYI, since yo...

Yes, I would up the vegetable protein. Hemp hearts are a good source, easy to sprinkle on your salad.

Re: Gauging Interest in a Trial with Valter Longo, PhD

Since high quality protein (and resistance training, of course) raises IGF-1, I'm wondering if the amount of protein on the protocol isn't enough for me at my age (73). My Thoughts on Insulin Like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) Your doctor is correct, older folks tend to need more protein, but is it a nee...

Re: Did you tell your family?

2) I have no way of knowing whether my half-siblings would want to know, and they may not. So there's the chance that I'll be doing them harm. Nine years ago when I learned my 4/4 status, I didn’t care if my siblings wanted to know or not, I told them! Over time I mentioned it again, more than once...

This code does not seem to be working🥲
I think the code was only for the free sneak peak until October 15th. I suspect you tried to access it after Sunday. But as Julie said it should now be available to rent now from multiple streaming services, its just now there's a fee.
